Hush My Dear Lie Still and Slumber - SATB, solo

Paul Mealor's Hush! my dear lie still and slumber for SATB divisi chorus had its World Premiere at St Sepulchre without Newgate London Youth Choir on the 17th March 2014. Rebecca Tavener in the December 2014 edition of Organists' Review writes that with this work 'Mealor continues to prove himself as a composer of reliable craftsmanship' making 'a fine case for the current lyrical accessible tonal zeitgeist in British choral music.'

Through the centuries, the Christmas season has inspired composers, poets, lyricists and hymn writers to apply their craft in devotion to this event. This book presents 100 arrangements of favorite Christmas carols and advent hymns for cello solo with guitar accompaniment. Suggested chordal accompaniment is included for each solo so that any chordal instrument can accompany the cello. Where appropriate, capo chords are shown.The author has also indicated whether the guitarist should use fingerstyle or strum accompaniment. The music in this book spans centuries and represents a wonderful assortment of solos which may be used as preludes or offertories throughout the various seasons in the church year. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Musique religieuse / Date parution : 2018-05-04/ Recueil / Violoncelle et Guitare
